![]() Meridians/Longitude Lines measuring location and time zones (1 hr each 15 degrees) on earth that wrap around and touch at the poles. (Topographic Maps do this) Statistical Maps A special type of map in which the variation in quantity of a factor such as rainfall, population, or crops in a geographic area is indicated such as a dot map Grid System Longitude and Latitude Parallels/Latitude Lines measuring location on earth that wrap around, don't touch. More dots = more of the variable Flow-line maps Maps that use lines of varying thickness to show the direction and volume of a particular geographic movement pattern Isoline Map Map that uses continuous lines connecting areas of same value. Cartograms Shows data in relation to size Choropleth Maps Shows data in relation to color/intensity/shade Dot Maps Each dot represents an amount of data. ![]() Thematic Maps Used to display data about a location. (Combination of Cylindrical and Conic) Reference Maps Used for transportation and locating places. (Keeps distance, loses direction) Oval Projection Maps Used for world maps (16th and 17th century). ![]() Conic Projection Map Map projected onto the surface of a cone whose point is usually above one of the poles. (Shows Accurate Direction) Planar Projection Maps Earth projected from one point. Most distortion at the poles, least at the equator. (Scope of view.) Cylindrical Projection Maps Surface of a globe projected as if on a cylinder. Generally, the relationship between the portion of Earth being studied and Earth as a whole, specifically the relationship between the size of an object on a map and the size of the actual feature on Earth's surface. (Peters) Conformal Maps Maps that distort area but keep shapes intact (Mercator) Scale The scope Equal-area projection maps Shapes and directions are distorted but land area is kept in tact. Distortion Inaccuracies in a map due to the translation of a 3D image to a 2D surface. Sequent Occupance Successive societies leave their cultural imprints on a place, contributing to the cumulative cultural landscape. Cultural Landscape How a culture affects the landscape of an area/shapes the world around it. Most are comprised of a combination of natural and human-induced influences. (usually positive) Landscape the overall appearance of an area. Sense of Place What makes a place unique Perception of Place belief or "understanding" about a place developed through books, movies, stories or pictures Movement the change from one location to another Intervening Opportunity something that stops a person from continuing through migration. All students who participate in late testing at a given school must take these alternate exams on the scheduled late-testing dates at the scheduled times.Place A specific point on Earth distinguished by particular characteristics. To preserve the security of AP Exams, alternate forms are used for late testing. Occasionally, circumstances make it necessary for students to test late.
